It sounds like awful over-reaction to me, Chuck

It sounds like a group of clueless people feeling more-than-normally  
clueless and wearing their extra-clueless jackets and ties, led by  
Captain(ess) Super-Clueless and his flight attendant team.

The same flight crew might think little of running a flight with one  
generator out, or perhaps pressing to a more hospitable destination  
with one of their navigation system u/s.

But then ... remember that this is a newspaper, that it's part of News  
International and owned by the same person who owns Fox News in the  
USA.  Who knows what the story really was ... ?

I believe less and less in the newspapers these days, but News  
International (Sun, News of the World, Times (London)) is particularly  
bad.
